Supernova is formed during death of a star ,during which enormous amount of energy is given out.

Whereas a black hole can be thought to be an object having large mass and very small radius , so that it's escape velocity is greater than that of light ,that is even light cannot escape from it's gravitational attraction force.

A black hole is a region in space where gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape. It forms after a massive star collapses under its own gravity. A supernova, on the other hand, is a massive explosion that occurs when a star reaches the end of its life cycle and suddenly releases a tremendous amount of energy.

A black hole is what remains after the supernova is finished exploding.

When a supernova explodes, it generates such intense heat and pressure that atoms that cannot normally fuse together, like carbon and iron, ARE fused together, creating all of the heavy elements such as lead or gold or uranium. The explosion is so enormous that as it is creating these heavy elements, the supernova is also blasting the star apart and throwing a good percentage of itself back into space.

The core of the star is crushed beyond measurement into the "ultimate" density of a black hole, while the outer layers are thrown out into space - where they can help to form new solar systems like our own. Because our bodies contain elements like iron and magnesium, we KNOW that we contain star-stuff; that's the only way iron could ever form, in the explosion of a supernova.

they are quite opposite, a vacuum is a lack of any matter and a black hole is so much matter with such a great gravitational pull that light can't escape

Were did a black hole come from?

Black holes came from old big stars that went supernova as it dies. Supernova causes the star to collapse into a black hole


Is it true if a black hole swallows a supernova nothing will happen?

If a black hole swallows a supernova, it would likely absorb the material from the explosion, increasing its mass and potentially leading to the emission of strong gravitational waves. The interaction between a black hole and a supernova would depend on various factors such as the size and distance of the black hole from the supernova.

What is the relationship between a Supernova and a Black whole?

It is speculated that a supernova (exploding star), after its reaching its maximum expansion, then collapses into itself, forming an incredibly dark and powerful gravitational force known as a black hole.


What is the difference between a black hole and red giant in astronomy?

a red gaint is when a masize star is at the end of its life and its energy will run out and cause a supernova or will become so dense its own gravity will make it fall in on its self to become a black hole. so basicaly red gaint is a star dieing and a black hole; its already died.


Will a supernova cause a black whole?

Either a black hole, or a neutron star. That depends on how much mass is left after the supernova explosion.
